Director of Talent Acquisition

Position Summary

The Director of Talent Acquisition owns the company’s recruiting function end-to-end, from candidate sourcing through new hire onboarding.

• Partner directly with executives on critical talent searches.

Recruitment Marketing & Sourcing

• Identify and scale effective sourcing channels (referrals, digital ads, professional associations, community partnerships).
• Collaborate with Marketing/Communications to strengthen employer brand visibility.

Metrics & Accountability
